It can also destroy many single users who do not either share its power among others (like the Guardians did) or channel it through a weapon (as Ronan the Accuser did). The Power Stone - Purple in the MCU, this stone is typically held in an OrbĀ for protection and has the power to obliterate entire planets in the hands of a strong enough user.
The full capabilities of it have yet to be explored. A symbiotic entity, it latches onto its host and grants them almost unlimited reality-warping power. The Reality Stone - Red in the MCU, this stone takes the shape of a dark red liquid known as the Aether. It was also used to breathe life into the robot superhero Vision. The Mind Stone - Yellow in the MCU, this stone can be used to control the minds of others and was used as a Scepter by the villainous god Loki and the espionage organization HYDRA. It has also been used to craft advanced weaponry. The Space Stone - Blue in the MCU, this stone can transport the user to any location in the known universe through the creation of portals in its use as the cube-shaped Tesseract.
There are six Infinity Stones, and we've seen a few of them in the movies: Obviously, this creates massive problems for The AvengersĀ and the Guardians of the Galaxy if they fall into the wrong hands, and even if they don't, the stones provide endless opportunities for chase scenes and MacGuffin action.
There are six of them, each imbued with different properties linked to different aspects of the universe, and, when combined using the "Infinity Gauntlet," they can grant a user omnipotence over the fabric and shape of reality. The Marvel Cinematic Universe's Infinity Stones - known as the Infinity Gems in the comics - are cosmic super weapons.
